and icons to Windows Explorer for working on MC 218 files. See the
online help for Ericsson EPOC Connect for details of how to use
Ericsson EPOC Connect with the MC 218.
Note! The Comms program that is built into the MC 218 provides terminal
emulation and file transfer to other computers. You can use it to connect the
MC 218 directly to another computer, or via a modem to access electronic
mail systems and bulletin boards.
Setting up a regular backup
Backing up to PC
You can use Ericsson EPOC Connect to back up individual files or folders, the
MC 218’s entire Internal disk, or files on Memory disks to the PC.
It is a good idea to set up an ‘automatic backup’ in Ericsson EPOC Connect so
that you can make sure you back up your machine regularly.
See the Ericsson EPOC Connect online help for details.
Backing up to Memory Disks
You can back up individual files, individual folders or groups of files and
folders to a Memory Disk. To back up the files and folders, copy them from
the internal disk to a Memory Disk using the Copy and Paste commands on
the Desktop screen.
1. Select the files and folders you want to back up, then select Copy on the
Edit menu.
2. Set the current disk to be D (i.e. the Memory disk), and select the folder
you want to use for the backup on disk D.
3. On the Edit menu, select Paste.
Exploring the Control panel
This is how you explore the Control panel.
To display the Control panel:
• Tap the Control panel button on the toolbar or select the command on
the Too ls menu. Initially, you should set up the Time & date, Screen,
Switch on/off, and Printer if you intend to use one. You might also like
to set up owner information and a password. You may wish to change
other settings later.
When you first get the MC 218, you may wish to:
• Use the International icon to change settings which may vary from
country to country, e.g. the currency and date formats.
• Use the Switch on/off icon to control how and when the MC 218
switches on and off. For example, you might like it to switch on when
you tap the screen, and off when you close the case.
• Use the Sound icon to control the sounds that the MC 218 makes when
you press keys, tap the screen and perform other actions.
